Chapter 200: Sweet Honey Ashes Like Frost 21
Although Runyu became the Emperor of Heaven later, his luck had been lost, which was not good news for this side of the Heavenly Dao.
It seems that Dou Mu Yuanjun did not do anything tricky in this. She first used the flower goddess Zifen to steal the luck of Taiwei and the water god, and then used Jin Mi to steal the luck of Runyu and Xufeng to provide for herself.
What a good plan.
Hearing Ling Xi's words, a dark light flashed across Runyu's eyes, and he asked again: "A Xi, is there any way to destroy this formation?"
He didn't want to feel moved by Jin Mi every time he saw her. That feeling was too terrible and he didn't want to feel that emotion at all.
But who is the real culprit behind this? He is just an unpopular Night God. Who would go to such great lengths to leave this formation in his soul?
Ling Xi held Runyu's wrist, his eyes burning, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I will solve this problem, but I still need some time."
Destroying that formation might cause some damage to Runyu's soul, so she had to prepare medicine to restore his spirit.
Everything is ready, and only after she is prepared will she feel at ease.
Runyu looked at Ling Xi. No matter when, he always believed in her.
Just like back then, she said that she would always be with him, so over the past few thousand years, she was the only one willing to stay with him in the cold and quiet Xuanji Palace, never complaining at all, and she even brought vitality and warmth to his Xuanji Palace.
Now that there was a solution, Ling Xi naturally started preparing for it immediately.
She has always been a doer, and would like to solve problems as quickly as possible. Otherwise, the longer she delays, the more likely some unexpected emergencies may arise.
Just like that, after two days, Ling Xi came out of seclusion, packed the pills he had refined, and planned to find a good day to resolve the formation in Runyu's soul.
As soon as she walked out of the room, she received two messages from Yuexiaxianxian and Jin Mi.
She had exchanged methods of communicating with the two of them before. The Moon Fairy had used this method to find her countless times. As for Jin Mi, she didn't know why she wanted to find her.
After reading the message, I found that the two people were talking about the same thing.
The conscription in heaven that takes place every few decades is about to begin. The Moon Fairy and Jin Mi sent her a message, inviting her to watch the fun.
Such a lively scene was indeed quite entertaining. She had once gone to watch it with the Moon Fairy, the fox who loved to watch the fun. It was full of jokes and very interesting.
However, this conscription is not only an activity to supplement and renew the heavenly soldiers and generals, but also a time for the God of Fire and the God of Night to recruit disciples together.
Logically speaking, Runyu should have a share, but in the past years, most of the heavenly soldiers and generals who ascended from the mortal world became disciples of the God of Fire, and very few became disciples of Runyu. As time went by, every time there was a conscription, Runyu would not go in person, but just send someone to go through the motions.
So later on, she rarely went to see it.
However, since both Yuexiaxianxian and Jinmi invited her, she would take Runyu with her to join in the fun and observe what happens when Runyu meets Jinmi.
Thinking of this, Ling Xi went to the study. When Runyu had nothing to do, he was basically in the study. He absolutely loved those books deeply.
Ling Xi knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing Runyu writing a booklet, she slowed down her pace, walked to his side, and said with a smile, "Runyu, let's go and see the selection of heavenly soldiers at Shengxian Mansion today. Your uncle and Jin Mi have sent me letters, so let's go together."
Runyu put down his pen and met her expectant eyes. He immediately stopped saying no and nodded, "Okay."
Ling Xi looked at him, and seeing that he didn't show any disappointment or frustration, she smiled even more deeply: "It's just right, when you see Jin Mi today, see if you still have that reaction in your heart." Runyu stood up, "Okay."
When Ling Xi and Runyu arrived at the Shengxian Mansion, they were not in a hurry to go in. Runyu went to look for Xufeng and planned to go in with Xufeng, while Ling Xi went to look for Jin Mi.
When she saw Jin Mi, Jin Mi was talking to Fei Xu, a guard from Qiwu Palace.
Ling Xi had very good ears, so even though she was standing in the dark, she could still hear the conversation between Jin Mi and Fei Xu.
When Jin Mi saw Feixu, her voice was very cheerful and happy: "Feixu Fairy Servant, what good show are we going to watch later?"
Feixu replied, "Is it a hearing test? His Highness is going to discuss military tactics with the military strategists and select the Heavenly Generals from the newly arrived Earthly Immortals. This only happens once every thirty years. You are so lucky to have arrived just in time for it."
There are two areas in this hall, one is where the God of Fire recruits soldiers, and the other is where the God of Night recruits soldiers.
At this moment, the position belonging to the God of Fire was full of people and there was almost no room left.
And at Ye Shen's place, there was no one, it was very empty.
In comparison, there is really a world of difference between one that is packed with people and the other that is deserted.
Jin Mi pointed to the empty space where Ye Shen was standing, and asked curiously, "Why are there so many people here, but no one over there?"
Feixu looked proud, with her head held high and her chest puffed out, her tone full of pride: "How great is it to be chosen by our Lord of Fire to serve under the Five Heavenly Generals?"
Jin Mi asked again: "Then what's wrong with being a disciple of the Night God?"
Feixu looked around and saw that no one noticed, so he lowered his voice and said, "You don't know this, right? Although His Highness Ye Shen is the eldest son, he is a concubine and has no military merits, so he is just a runner-up in recruiting soldiers. But our His Highness is different. Our His Highness is the legitimate son of the Queen of Heaven. In the future, he will inherit the throne and rule the heavens."
Jin Mi couldn't help but be curious: "Is His Majesty Ye Shen coming today?"
Fei Xu replied nonchalantly, "His Highness Ye Shen is aloof from the world and has no interest in these tedious matters. He always sends one person to show up and that's it."
Jin Mi wanted to ask something more, but she heard someone outside report:
"His Highness the God of Fire has arrived."
"His Majesty the Night God has arrived."
Some of the old people present were very surprised. It was not strange for the God of Fire to come, after all, it was like this every time.
But this Night God seemed to have only appeared a few times for this recruitment, and seemed to be completely unconcerned about this matter. Why did he suddenly appear this time?
When Ling Xi heard the notification, he came out from the darkness and came to Jin Mi's side.
"Jin Mi." she called.
When Jin Mi saw Ling Xi, her eyes lit up and she smiled happily: "Fairy Ling Xi, you are here."
Ling Xi's expression towards Jin Mi was very gentle, and even her voice was much gentler, "Jin Mi invited me, so of course I will come."
